PPD extends beyond the commonly experienced “baby blues” and can significantly impact a mother’s functionality due to its potential to evolve into a long-term depressive disorder if not properly addressed. The piece highlights the inadequacy of current maternal mental health support structures within the National Health Service (NHS), pointing out the lack of specialised treatment options tailored to new mothers' unique needs.\u0000\u0000It discusses the compound effects of social stigma and cultural barriers that limit access to necessary support, underscoring the urgent need for enhanced support systems and policy reforms. The piece highlights the serious long-term effects of PPD on children, such as developmental delays and emotional and behavioural challenges, advocating for early intervention and comprehensive support systems that address the needs of both mothers and their families. It calls for the adoption of thorough PPD management strategies, including the use of effective screening tools such as the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale, and extensive educational campaigns to identify early PPD symptoms. The piece further urges for policy changes to provide new mothers with tailored resources and support, promoting a more inclusive and supportive healthcare environment for affected families.\u0000","PeriodicalId":500839,"journal":{"name":"Qeios","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141008798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A newly proposed design, featuring 36 ports, employs both uniform and non-uniform arrangements, subjected to rigorous testing with systems ranging from 50 to 350 kW. Failure rates are projected through meticulous assessments based on MILHDBK217F and MILHBK-338B standards, employing binomial distribution and cost analysis to gauge port reliability and overall station success rates. This innovative design not only bolsters voltage stability but also curtails maintenance expenses by bolstering port reliability.In the realm of robotics and autonomous systems (RAS), Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) demonstrates exceptional prowess but grapples with the risk of unsafe policies, potentially resulting in perilous decisions. To address this concern, a novel study introduces a reliability evaluation framework tailored for DRL-driven systems, leveraging formal neural network analysis. This framework adopts a two-tiered verification strategy: firstly, by assessing safety locally using reachability tools, and secondly, by aggregating local safety metrics across various tasks to evaluate global safety. Empirical validation validates the efficacy of this framework in fortifying the safety of RAS.\u0000","PeriodicalId":500839,"journal":{"name":"Qeios","volume":"67 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141007810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The period of adolescence is critical in the initiation of smoking or tobacco use as well as its progression from experimentation to dependency. In this study, the role of psychological stress was explored with respect to cigarette consumption and level of addiction or dependence.\u0000\u0000METHODS: A total of 183 male college students (mean age= 19.8 years) from Bangalore, India completed the questionnaire booklet which included a Cigarette use screening form, the Perceived Stress Scale and the Autonomy over Smoking Scale. Of the 183 participants, there were 85 (46.2%) current smokers and 98 (53.7%) nonsmokers, and their scores on the perceived stress scale were compared using analysis of variance and independent samples _t_ tests. The relationship between levels of stress and dependence on tobacco (loss of autonomy) was also explored using Pearson’s product moment correlation (_r_).\u0000\u0000RESULTS: There was no significant difference between current smokers and nonsmokers on perceived stress (_t_[181] = -1.26, _p_ >0.05), The same result was extended when the group of nonsmokers was divided into three (Never smokers, experimental smokers and former regular smokers) and the differences in scores were tested again between all four groups (_F_[3, 179]=.642, _p_ >0.05). There was, however, a significant positive correlation between level of dependence on tobacco and perceived stress (_r_=.743, _p_ <0.01).\u0000\u0000CONCLUSION: The study found that there was no difference in perceived stress levels between smokers and nonsmokers, although there was a positive relationship between the level of perceived stress and level of tobacco dependence (loss of autonomy) among the current smokers.\u0000","PeriodicalId":500839,"journal":{"name":"Qeios","volume":"112 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141017264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
